North Yorkshire’s Biggest Wedding Show

York Racecourse

The UK Wedding Event at York Racecourse is North Yorkshire’s biggest and best wedding fayre taking place twice a year in March and October (in normal years anyway!).

Obviously we were deeply disappointed that neither of these shows were able to go ahead in 2020 due to the pandemic and the restrictions brought in to combat the outbreak.

Plans to host the event in the first half of 2021 have also had to be shelved, so it is now our intention to make a comeback at this picturesque venue on Sunday 17th October 2021 .

Typically the show attracts over 100 exhibitors and in excess of 1500 visitors, and with the successful roll-out of the vaccines we hope that will be possible again this year.

We certainly want you to have fun and to find inspiration as you plan for your own special day which I’m sure you will do from seeing and chatting to Yorkshire’s finest wedding suppliers at our unrivalled event.

A one way system may be in place and all visitors looking to attend the event must pre-book tickets for allocated time slots to help us control numbers and keep everyone safe.

For potential exhibitors, we have also reduced our stand prices to reflect the challenges the industry has faced and I know they will be grateful for your support too.

At this time, we are still unsure whether our catwalk shows brilliantly arranged by Kris Wright’s Kulture Project team will be part of the experience, but it is fully our intention to restore this ever popular element to the day when it is safe to do so.

The following wedding suppliers were all signed up to take part in our big wedding show at York Racecourse on Sunday 29th March 2020 before lockdown put pay to those great plans!

We will be returning in 2021 though with a fabulous show on Sunday 17th October and the line-up will be displayed here soon but please get in touch if you would like to exhibit as well:
